Since 1991 when Kim Hak-Sun became the first woman to come forward to the public, identifying herself as a victim of the World War II Japanese Imperial Army’s Comfort Women system, a sharp divide has existed between Japan and many of its neighbors, with the divide between Korea and Japan being the sharpest and the most publicized. Japan, throughout the 1990s and the first decade of the new Millennium, attempted to dismiss this issue. The Japanese court system, beginning with December 6, 1991 Association of Korean Victims Lawsuit in Tokyo District Court consistently sided with the Japanese government’s official position that an unconditional acceptance of responsibility for this tragic chapter of history by Japan and the provision of reparations by Japan to the system’s victims was not required as the plaintiffs had argued. Japan’s interest in addressing this matter was piqued, however, when the first Memorial to commemorate the Comfort Women was established in Palisades Park, New Jersey, United States of America in 2010 followed by the first memorial in Korea directly in front of the Japanese Embassy in Seoul in 2011, This presentation proposes to re-examine the Comfort Women issue, considering its scope and significance, even providentially, and invites reflection and consideration of how progress can be made in the resolution of this problem. This presentation also invites consideration of True Parents’ view of this tragedy and assesses the role that they and FFWPUI have already played and might play in the future in the transformation and attenuation of this conflict, utilizing a Unificationist application of Peace Studies to this problem in particular.
